deal accepted: los angeles lakers power forward lebron james signs 4-year, $109 million contract with dallas mavericks as their new leader
in a stunning move that shocked the nba world, lebron james has officially signed a 4-year deal worth $109 million with the dallas mavericks. after spending the last seasons with the los angeles lakers, the 39-year-old superstar will now bring his experience, talent, and championship pedigree to dallas as their new franchise leader.
the deal was confirmed early sunday morning by both the mavericks’ front office and lebron’s representatives. sources close to the situation reveal that the mavericks had been in talks with james for weeks, and the agreement marks a major shift in power in the western conference.
lebron, a four-time nba champion and the all-time leading scorer in nba history, is expected to take on a dual role in dallas — serving not only as a player but also as a mentor to stars like luka dončić and kyrie irving. this move reunites james with irving, his former teammate from the cleveland cavaliers’ 2016 championship run.
fans across the league are now eagerly anticipating the upcoming season, with the mavericks suddenly emerging as a top contender for the title under the leadership of one of basketball’s greatest icons.
